TinyMCE Quick Start guide

Create a new project and add the TinyMCE.Blazor component

From the command line

Create a new project

dotnet new blazorserver -o BlazorApp --no-https

Go into your new directory

cd BlazorApp

Install the TinyMCE Blazor integration

dotnet add package TinyMCE.Blazor

Verify by checking the ItemGroup references in BlazorApp.csproj

  ...

Using Visual Studio

On your Visual Studio select New Project and Blazor Server App template.

Using the Editor Component

Add the Editor component to your page

You can use the component name only with the using directive

@using TinyMCE.Blazor
<Editor />

Or you can refer to the component using its package name

<TinyMCE.Blazor.Editor />

To use the Editor output you can access the Value property or the read-only Text property.

Configuring the TinyMCE Blazor integration

The editor component accepts the following properties:

<Editor
  Id="uuid"
  Inline=false
  CloudChannel="7"
  Value=""
  Disable=false
  JsConfSrc="<path_to_jsObj>"
  Conf="@yourConf"
  ApiKey="your-api-key"
  LicenseKey="your-license-key"
  ClassName="tinymce-wrapper"
/>

None of the configuration properties are required for TinymceBlazor to work.

ApiKey

Tiny Cloud API key. Required for deployments using the Tiny Cloud to provide the TinyMCE editor.

Default value: no-api-key Type: string

Example using ApiKey

<Editor
  ApiKey="your-api-key"
/>

CloudChannel

Specifies the Tiny Cloud channel to use. For more information on TinyMCE development channels, see: Specifying the TinyMCE editor version deployed from Cloud - dev, testing, and stable releases

Default value: '5' Type: string

Example using CloudChannel

<Editor
  CloudChannel="5-dev"
/>

LicenseKey

Specifies the license key to be used with TinyMCE. This option does not need to be specified if you are using TinyMCE cloud.

Example using LicenseKey

<Editor
  LicenseKey="your-license-key"
/>

Id

Specified an Id for the editor. Used for retrieving the editor instance using the tinymce.get('ID') method.

Default value: Automatically generated UUID Type: string

Example using Id

<Editor
  Id="my-unique-identifier"
/>

Inline

Set the editor to inline mode.

Default value: false Type: bool

Example using Inline

<Editor
  Inline=true
/>

Disable

Set the editor to readonly mode.

Default value: false Type: bool

Example using Disable

<Editor
  Disable=@disable
/>
<button @onclick="@(() => disable = !disable)">Toggle</button>

JsConfSrc

Use a JS object as base configuration for the editor by specifying the path to the object relative to the window object.

Default: null Type: string

Example using JsConfSrc

In your _Host.cshtml:

window.sample = {
  height: 300,
  toolbar: 'undo redo | bold italic'
}

In your component:

<Editor
  JsConfSrc="sample"
/>

Conf

Specify a set of properties for the Tinymce.init method to initialize the editor.

Default value: null Type: Dictionary<string, object>

Example using Conf

<Editor
  Conf="@editorConf"
/>

@code {
  private Dictionary<string. object> editorConf = new Dictionary<string, object>{
    {"toolbar", "undo redo | bold italic"},
    {"width", 400}
  };
}

ClassName

Specify the class for the Editor container div in the component. This div is the parent of the Editor and adding styles to it will not add styles to the editor.

Example using ClassName

<Editor ClassName="my-editor-container" />

<Editor ClassName="@((isEditorActive) ? "active-editor-div" : "default-editor-div")" />

Component binding

Input binding

The @bind-Value directive can be used to create a two-way data binding.

Example using input binding

<Editor
  @bind-Value=content
/>

<textarea @bind=content @bind:event="oninput"></textarea>

@code {
  private string content = "<p>Hello world</p>";
}

Enable Form Validation

When the Editor is used part of a form inside an EditForm, specifying Field directive will enable form validation behaviours like Blazor's build in form components.

By default the Editor trigger validation when onchange event fires. You can change the trigger to oninput by specifying ValidateOnInput to true.

<EditForm EditContext="@CurrentEditContext">
    <DataAnnotationsValidator />
    <p>
        <label>Content</label>

        <Editor Field="() => Model.Content"
          @bind-Value="Model.Content"
          ValidationOnInput="@true"/>

        <ValidationMessage For="() => Model.Content" />
    </p>
</EditForm>

@code {
    private Model Model { get; set; } = new Model();
    private EditContext? CurrentEditContext;

    protected override void OnInitialized()
    {
        CurrentEditContext = new(Model);
        base.OnInitialized();
    }
}

Binding Text output

Starting from v0.0.4 you can use the @bind-Text property to hook the text output of the editor into a variable
